Destin Pointe Homes for Sale

Living in Destin Pointe

Destin Pointe occupies the far western end of the Holiday Isle peninsula, past the point where Gulf Shore Drive gives way to the Norriego Point recreation area, with East Pass and its jetties wrapping the community's western edge. The setting is what defines it: water on multiple sides, boats funneling through the pass, and the rebuilt point next door, where the city completed a fourteen acre park of dune walkovers and a looping boardwalk after a state-funded stabilization, its jetty-protected inlets holding calm water for swimming. Inside the gate, seaside cottages and larger beach houses share the grounds with the Magnolia House condominium building facing the pass, and the amenities run to a seasonally heated pool and hot tub, two lighted tennis courts, two small lakes, and a tram that carries owners and guests to and from the beach - about 3,000 feet of shoreline by the on-site rental company's count. Because the peninsula ends here, traffic past the gate belongs to the community, its guests, and its services rather than anyone passing through. Short-term rental use is an established part of the community in general terms, with specifics set by its governing documents, and the western outlook takes in the bridge, the jetties, and the evening run of boats home to the harbor.
